Mumbai, Dec 5

Bond prices rose by around 5 paise, as improvement in liquidity continued to provide comfort to traders. Total traded volumes on the order-matching system were at Rs 7,495 crore (Rs 5,295 crore). Dealers said that prices inched up by 15 paise during the day but profit booking trimmed the gains at just 5 paise. “The US Fed is expected to cut interest rates next week and if that happens, the widening interest rate differential would attract more funds to India,” said a dealer at a private bank.

The 7.99 per cent-10 year-2017 paper opened at Rs 100.73 (7.88 per cent YTM) and closed at Rs 100.78 (7.87 per cent YTM), against the previous close at Rs 100.75 (7.88 per cent YTM).
